Borges called CITIZEN KANE a "labyrinth with no center" but it was the center of the labyrinth that was Orson Welles, and our final destination in the second half of this tour of the magician's career, after we pass through TOUCH OF EVIL (1958), THE TRIAL (1962), THE IMMORTAL STORY (1968), F FOR FAKE (1975), and THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND (2018)... and realize that in his flaws, if not his greatness, Orson Welles was a lot like us.

Zoomer Orson Welles protege joins me for a Citizen Kane-like adventure through the entire career of the man who believed in magic perhaps too much -- or, perhaps, too little. We look at almost every film he made, we lean in for his radio, we applaud his theater, we gasp at his tricks and read his biography ("Rosebud" by David Thomson). Maybe we can find out what this giant boy was missing...

I review the Oscar-nominated biopic A Complete Unknown, before reprising my own interactive case for Bob Dylan the artist, the man, and the prophet on a mission to make America great again.

Originally aired in 2023 as "Bob Dylan on Hollywood Blvd. Vol 1 & 2," this is one of my deepest most personal solo adventures, full of outlandish historical claims that might be fun to compare to how things are turning out.
